Story County prosecutors have dropped charges against two teens charged with sexual assault.

David Price, 16, of Ames, and James Carsel, 16, of Boone, were accused of taking a 17-year-old girl from her home in Hamilton County and taking her to Peterson Pits. That's where the alleged assault took place.

Carsel's attorney Peter Berger told KCCI that the charges were dropped against his client and Price because of video evidence.

Berger said a surveillance video from the Casey's store in Gilbert shows the teens in the store buying a sandwich at the same time as the alleged assault.

Berger said when they presented the tape to prosecutors the charges against the teens were dropped.
